A very, very small point with your good note. I strongly advise avoiding the hard code of the /usr/bin/find path. This has always come back to torment me when moving scripts from system to system. The find command I want is sometimes in /bin/find and sometimes in /usr/bin/find and sometimes the GNU find that I want to use overriding the native system find is someplace like /usr/local/bin/find. I find it much better to avoid specifying that path and just letting it be found in the shell PATH. Bob
